:hello:hi Hex!! Have you read anything by Helen Dunmore? I spotted a set in The Book People catalogue, and haven't heard of her.

Glad to hear you're feeling a lot better.

Hope no one minds me asking, but does anyone know where I can buy those dried "chinese lantern" "flowers", you know, the orange ones. I've been looking all over for some and can't find them even online. Just thought I'd tap the collective fly-wisdom x

Ooh.. knew I'd forgotten something..

Kazw what about a nice backpack to carry those school things in? On boots 3 for 2 they usually have science museum, national history and natural history boys sets so might be worth a look on there

Pigpen that's a thought actually the 'robotic hand' is on 3 for 2

Thanks I'll go peek

Evening! My car has a lovely sparkling crack-free new windscreen and I have decluttered £75

Mum decided to tell me today that she's having an op to remove a lump inside her mouth on Monday. Apparently she's had it for ages, has been under the care of the dentist, then the hospital, has had a biopsy and other tests and this morning went for the pre-op but felt no need to tell me anything until now :mad: Why does she always do this? I'm not a child anymore :mad:

Sorry - just needed to get that out. I know it's nothing major in the grand scheme of things but it is one of the 'issues' I have in life and she still doesn't get it!

Anyway, hugs and prayers for all poorlies - oh, stuff it, you can all have a hug!

LW - I mentioned you to my dad (in a discussion about ratty photos!) and, apparently my cousin had lupus. Hugs xx

pigpen - more thoughts and prayers for A xx

I have a message from soappie for everyone - she's very busy doing 4 jobs but everyone is ok including BB and the chickens (who are about at point of lay). She sends her love to everyone and hopes to find the time to post soon xx

Nice lady from hospital waiting list department has just rung...

They have a cancellation so Monday I am going for a pre op and then I will be in (all being well) for my Gallbladder removal on 10th November..

Hi Shysarah, DH had his gall bladder out 5 yrs ago, if your lucky they'll do it by "keyhole surgery", if not don't worry the stay in is a little longer.
Your taste buds may be a little screwed up by the antibiotics they give you, (everything tastes the same), but once your off them it should be fine.
Take your time recovering cos it'll be a bit sore.

Regards, Pud

Froddy hugs for you Mum and for you. Some people share stuff with others and some don't. I'm not a sharer and neither is my sister although we would both share with each other but probably nobody else. It is not a reflection on others, it's just the way some people are. Hope all goes well and try not to be hard on your Mum x

Well have decluttered a delicious tea (OH cooked fried rice nomnomnom) and had a good laugh whilst watching RED and Mentalist, now about to dose up on pills and go to my bed
